"What a great shot! He jumped in and then came out and threw in a three-pointer. Chen Yan caught the Spanish men's basketball team off guard!" Sun Zhengping said eloquently after the three-pointer fell into the bag.
"Ouch! You can still hit three-pointers steadily while turning back quickly. This is a reflection of your personal ability!" Zhang Lili boasted on the side.
Last season, Zhang Lili was the commentator for most of the Suns' games. Domestic fans are basically familiar with his routine of blowing Chen Yan. Normal goals are reasonable goals, and some unreasonable and difficult goals are a reflection of personal ability.
, anyway, there is something to say.
Spanish attack round.
After halftime, Calderon handed the ball to Navarro, who played a pick-and-roll with Jiménez and then broke inside with the ball.
After changing defense, the Arab League followed Navarro closely.
Navarro underestimated the United Arab Emirates' mobility and accelerated to the bottom corner before throwing high.
"Crack!"
Ah Lian burst out from the wing, presented a volleyball hat and directly slapped the basketball out of the air!
A-Lian's running and jumping ability alone can be considered above-average among black players in the NBA. Navarro can't get any advantage from him.
The whole audience burst into cheers, and Chen Yan and Zhu Ba took turns high-fiving Ah Lian. This block greatly boosted morale.
Ah Lian's eyes were full of murderous intent. He performed brilliantly on both offense and defense in the beginning. His confidence was clearly demonstrated today.
Spain resumed serving from the bottom line. There was not much time left to attack in the round. After a simple pass, Reyes missed a mid-range shot.
Dayao got the backcourt rebound and Chen Yan reached for the ball.
The Spanish men's basketball team retreated in time. Seeing that there was no chance for a fast break, Chen Yan slowed down to organize the attack at the top of the arc.
The Chinese men's basketball players spread out and took the initiative to help Chen Yan open up space. His one-on-one success rate was very high.
Chen Yan was engaged in a 1v1 with Navarro from a high position, and after a series of crotch movements, he made a large drag step and instantly swayed half of his body!
Immediately after making a bow, Chen Yan deceived Navarro's center of gravity and quickly took the ball and drove in.
The Spanish men's basketball team quickly recovered their formation. They did not intend to defend Chen Yan with the strength of one player, and they could not do it.
Chen Yan's performance in this Olympics is obvious to all. So far, his various statistics are among the best among all players.
Olympic scoring champion!
Olympic assist king!
Olympic steal king!
Olympic three-point king!
Olympic 1v1 singles efficiency king!
The men's basketball competition has now reached the end of the Olympic Games, so these data rankings will basically not change.
When Chen Yan took the first step, he passed the ball to Zhu 8 at a 45-degree angle outside the three-point line.
Chen Yan saw the changes in Spain's formation. He deliberately avoided their double-teams and did not fall into the defensive trap. This is Chen Yan's ability to read the game.
Zhu 8 got an open opportunity. After receiving the ball, he dribbled on the spot. After adjusting, he shot a three-pointer.
"Whoosh!"
The knife falls from the hand!
7 to 10.
After the ball was scored, Zhu Ba raised his finger and pointed at Chen Yan. Chen Yan created a very comfortable shooting space for him in this round.
This kind of breakthrough looks very simple, but no one in the Chinese team can produce this effect of Chen Yan, mainly because no one has Chen Yan's breakthrough deterrence and ability to attract defenses.
The head coach Yunus on the sidelines nodded. The Chinese men's basketball team started off well. Unlike Chen Yan's lonely carry in the last game, the first 10 points of the Chinese men's basketball team were scored by four different players. This is a great success for them.
A good signal.
Spain still attacked from a position, with Gasol as the pivot to provide support. Reyes played his best cut without the ball. Dayao occupied the inside and overturned him with the ball. The referee called Dayao a hitter.
foul.
"Dayao, pay attention to controlling fouls!" Chen Yan walked to Dayao and reminded him.
In the last game, Dayao performed poorly because he fell into the opponent's offensive trap.
Dayao nodded: "I know, I will pay attention."
Dayao is a smart man, he will not fall into the same pit twice.
Reyes made two free throws and the score came to 9-10.
The Chinese men's basketball team attacked, but Spain's defense obviously expanded a little in this round. The Chinese team scored two three-pointers in the beginning, which made the Spanish men's basketball team feel the pressure.
Liu Wei passed the ball to Chen Yan after halftime. Chen Yan handed the ball to Dayao in the high post and started running without the ball.
When Dayao Yao enters, he can destroy the city, and when he retreats, he can serve as a fulcrum to support the entire team, which is very important to the Chinese men's basketball team.
Chen Yan ran around the baseline. Dayao took a look and chose to pass to Zhu 8 on the other side. Spain's defensive focus was obviously on Chen Yan's side.
Zhu 8 tried another three-pointer after receiving the ball.
"Clang!"
This time it was blacksmithing.
Spain initiated an offensive and defensive transition.
The Chinese men's basketball team defended very tightly and did not give Spain a chance to quickly counterattack.
After experiencing victory in the group stage and knockout rounds, the Chinese men's basketball team's confidence level has obviously risen to a higher level. It is not afraid at all when facing strong European teams like Spain. It dares to take shots and make moves on the offensive end, and also dares to make moves on the defensive end.
The upper body resisted.
Calderon lowered his tempo and continued his positional warfare attack.
After the pick-and-roll, Gasol missed the mid-range shot.
The two sides began to fight, and in the third and fourth place finals, both sides were working hard. It was impossible to maintain a high shooting rate under such a high-intensity confrontation.
In the next two and a half minutes, the Chinese team had only one open play goal scored by Chen Yan, while the Spanish side did not even score a single open play goal, relying entirely on free throws.
The two sides played very anxiously in the first quarter, the score was 24 to 22, and the Chinese team led by 2 points.
In the second quarter, Spain replaced "golden boy" Rubio and Fernandez. They wanted to use young people to rush the Chinese team's defense to see if they could open a gap.
However, the two did not produce very good results, especially Fernandez. In the 3 minutes he played, he made 0 of 3 shots and made 2 mistakes. One of the fast breaks was directly blocked by Chen Yan.
Spain was also very decisive. When they saw the two young men performing normally, they immediately made substitution adjustments and replaced Gasol, Navarro and Calderon in advance.
After Gasol came on the court, he changed his style of play in the first quarter. He reduced the physical fight with Dayao inside and began to frequently move to the high post to make shooting moves, just like Okur and Boozer did against Dayao.
On the defensive end, Gasol was used as a human shield to hold up Yao.
Spain's tactic is to consume Dayao on both offense and defense.
Dayao was affected by the opponent's attack, but fortunately Chen Yan was still efficient and always led the Chinese team to maintain the lead in the second quarter.
At halftime, the score between the two sides was 49 to 45, with the Chinese team holding a 4-point lead.
Chen Yan made 8 of 13 shots in the half, including 3 of 4 three-pointers and 3 of 3 free throws. He scored 22 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.
As fans say, Chen Yan is as stable as a machine, never failing from the group stage to the third or fourth place finals.
